I get this message when discovering Nutanix:

Discovery log is too large and could not be saved. Log length: 20416812, Max length: 16777215.

1. Where is the "Max Length" defined? I don't see "16777215" set anywhere.
2. How do I fix this? I set mid.sm.discolog.max_log_size to "24417384", rebooted the mid server, and I still get that same message.

you will do that by going to this table type this in application navigator > sa_discovery_log.list 
and find log column there
Right click on log label select configure dictionary 
On that form There will be a field name Max Length if i am not wrong increase the size of that length in that field.

The link I sent.
You should read it out all the comments it also described there too.

Sorry, when I hit "3 Years doesn't necessarily mean it will not work." I sort of skimmed from that point on ... If you had read that post you'd realize it was referencing a bug from 3 years ago and wasn't relevant to this thread. I'll read the two links you sent and see what's in there since support can't seem to answer this one either.

No  I apologize actually it was because of a link I sent the other day to another question and someone said the same thing that its 6 years old and it worked and my answer was marked correct. looong story..
I am sorry.

btw did you find that table aman mentioned?
